Abstract：The recycling of waste lead paste is the focus of the lead recycling industry.Traditional fire smelting has issues with high energy consumption and heavy pollution.Wet conversion is a green and low-carbon recycling technology for waste lead paste,but its leaching efficiency and recycling of leac-hing agent need further improvement.In this study,triethylenetetramine(TETA)was used as a leac-hing agent to investigate the cyclic leaching of PbSO4 from waste lead paste.An effective leaching model was established using the response surface method,and the leaching reaction parameters were optimized.With a n(TETA/PbSO4)ratio of 1.3,a reaction time of 11 minutes,a liquid-solid ratio of 2,and a reaction temperature of 30℃,the predicted leaching rate of PbSO4 was 99.99％,achieving an actual leaching rate of 99.93％.The apparent activation energy of PbSO4 leaching reaction was found to be 47.5 kJ/mol.Furthermore,high-purity PbCO3 with an impurity content of 0.020 4％could be ob-tained from TETA-Pb solution by using Na2CO3.This process allows for the regeneration cycle of TETA while maintaining a leaching rate of PbSO4 above 90％in 10 cycles.The results provide a reference for the high-value utilization of waste lead paste.
